Sızma is a neighbourhood of the municipality and district of Selçuklu, Konya Province, Turkey.[1] Its population is 2,260 (2022).[2] Before the 2013 reorganisation, it was a town (belde).[3] [4]
Sızma is a few kilometers west of the main road connecting Konya to Afyon. The highway distance to Konya is about 25km (16miles).
There are ruins of Hittites and Roman Empire in the vicinity. But the town was founded by a group of Yörüks (nomadic Oghuz Turks) in the Middle Ages. The earliest name was Sizemene; but later on, it was shortened to Sızma.[5]
There is an abandoned mercury mine in Sızma with the ore grade of 0.6 to 1%[6] that was once a major economic activity of the town. Likewise carpet weaving is also declining. Presently, the main economic activity is agriculture (cereals) and animal husbandry.
